So, where are we going from here? My generation is older than Google and because of technology we have access to so much knowledge but yet we simply sit back and watch the world burn. It defies logic on every level. When does society finally declare, "Enough!" as a whole? The bulk of the people in our country are not being adequately served by our government. People who fought for "freedom" are now being left to starve and sleep on the streets as our government prints more and more money to send elsewhere. Why is inflation not discussed when we donate billions to support war, yet they warned it would result from handing us those checks during covid? Nothing is being done about the fact that we are not paid livable wages, do not have access to affordable healthcare, that our educational system is...questionable, that the cost of housing is absolutely insane, that the cost of food is insane, that some states still do not have access to safe drinking water, that our news outlets are flat out lying to all of us, and that we are witnessing this unfold in real time. It's been a month of feeling helpless and feels angry off that I am being forced to work 40 hours a week knowing that the money I am making is going to pay for things that I do not agree with. To put it simply, I oppose war. Bombing medical facilities is never acceptable in my book. The government's wickedness shouldn't be paid for by innocent children, in my opinion. I reject the idea that the only way out is for everyone to murder each other. Insane and totally not acceptable.
Tiktok has a horrible reputation among the elder generation. That it promotes falsehoods. Can you please clarify the live broadcasts? How can you convince us that the events unfolding before our very eyes are not real? How can we allow our news outlets to flat out lie about information and peddle so many false narratives? Seriously, what are we expected to do?

For someone like myself, who fights depression, life has a crazy way of hitting me right where it hurts. It's not easy to ignore the horrors that occur every day on our world. Peace is all I want. In a perfect world, everyone would enjoy a long and healthy life on our stunning planet. Technology was intended to make life simpler, not make it simpler for us to see the abilities of the top one percent of the population. I can't take it any longer. We really need change.
